Events

Match Events

  • 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Lincoln City FC launch into their encounter with Wigan Athletic FC.
  • 5' Lincoln City FC have won 396 goals from 332 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 10' Lincoln City FC are deployed in a 3-1-4-2 today, looking to exploit space against Wigan Athletic FC's 4-1-4-1 shape.
  • 15' It looks surprising Lincoln City FC does not make any changes. Dom Jefferies has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' Wigan Athletic FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 25' Callum McManaman needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Will Aimson made 4 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 35' The 21-year-old Bailey Cadamarteri has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 40' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 45' Adam Jackson picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 50' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 51' It’s gonna be a card for James Carragher.
  • 56' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Lincoln City FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 59' Wigan Athletic FC make a change. Joe Hugill trudges off to be replaced by Callum McManaman on 59 minutes.
  • 63' Jovon Makama has so much to prove this time. He replaces Bailey Cadamarteri on 63 minute.
  • 68' Over 68 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 73' Ben House is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Lincoln City FC tonight.
  • 76' Fresh legs for Wigan Athletic FC! Scott Smith comes on to replace Thelo Aasgaard.
  • 80' Babajide Adeeko gets the nod from Wigan Athletic FC. He replaces James Carragher and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 81' Another change for Lincoln City FC made on 81 minute. Dom Jefferies leaves to be changed by Erik Ring.
  • 84' Poor challenge from Tendayi Darikwa. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
  • 89' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Babajide Adeeko suffering a number of foals already.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-0.
